New Twitter Social Graffiti Service - Announcing twitPaint

Dear PhotoPeach users,

It makes us very happy when people use and enjoy our online services so today we are excited to announce a brand new social graffiti service called TwitPaint released at July 9th. With this new service everyone from kids on the streets to businessmen in business suites can now share graffiti tweets.

How to Use TwitPaint

1. Sketch a new concept or finish details on some graffiti letters but don't go over 140 strokes.
2. Instantly share with your followers and invite them to reply with a TwitPaint brush.
3. Reply to each others comments and start a conversation with brush strokes on the same painting.

Features

It is a very simple service that offers rich painting features such as width, opacity, and a good color palette.
With your twitter account you can send a message to your followers direct from the painting page on TwitPaint.com.
Share comments and brush strokes on the same painting by typing @username and pasting the same link.

Free-For-All

We hope you enjoy finding new ways to use this free service.

Our users have already created masterpieces in 140 strokes like Wierd-Al in Hawaii, Vader's Head, Funny Cats, and Anime Characters.

Roll up your sleeves and grab a brush,
The Nota, Inc. TwitPaint Team

Highest Slideshow Quality Ever And Much More

Dear PhotoPeach users,

1. Now Among the Highest Resolution Pictures in an Online Slideshow


We are proud to announce our tech team has greatly improved the picture quality of all Photopeach slideshows.
Now you will get very high image resolution in all of your slideshows.
We have also resolved the problem that sometimes PhotoPeach slideshows would "twinkle" when pictures zoomed and moved- they are now clear and very fluid.
Your existing PhotoPeach slideshows will all be automatically converted to this new better quality show.

2. Better Transition Effect "Ken Burns Plus"


"Ken Burns" is an expression effect that PhotoPeach has been using to show your photos like a video. We have now evolved that effect to "Ken Burns Plus". With the evolved effect your photos will move more dynamically and beautifully than ever before.
See a wonderful example made by user simbarashe.

3. Description Automatically Added Into Slideshow Captions

 



We have added a description area in the "create new slideshow" function so you can quickly add your thoughts.

After you finish creating new slideshows, we will separate your description and change it automatically to be included in the captions of the slideshow.

We developed this feature to help you tell even better stories with your slideshows and we would love to know how you feel.

We hope you enjoy the service and all of the new updates.

As always, please feel free to contact us at feedback page with any thoughts you may have.

Love,
The PhotoPeach Team
